Mobile service robots are going to play an increasing role in the society of humans. Voice-enabled interaction with service robots becomes very important, if such robots are to be deployed in real-world environments and accepted by the vast majority of pot ...
The complexity of today's autonomous robots poses a major challenge for Artificial Intelligence. These robots are equipped with sophisticated sensors and mechanical abilities that allow them to enter our homes and interact with humans. For example, today's ...
Facial expression recognition is a hard and ambiguous problem in computer vision. It is hard due to the wide variety of faces and the wide variety of ways of representing the same expression. And it is ambiguous because, even though common approaches treat ...
We present a model of human-like reaching movements. This model is then used to give a humanoid robot the ability to imitate human reaching motions. It illustrates that having a robot control similar to human control can greatly ease the human-robot intera ...
In a Robot Programming by Demonstration framework, several demonstrations of a task are required to generalize and reproduce the task under different circumstances. To teach a task to the robot, explicit pointers are required to signal the start/end of a d ...
This paper describes hardware and behavior implementation of a miniature robot in size of a match box that simulates the behavior of cockroaches in order to establish a social interaction with them. The robot is equipped with two micro-processors dedicated ...
This paper addresses the problems of what to imitate and how to imitate in simple uni- and bi-manual manipulatory tasks. To solve the what to imitate issue, we use a probabilistic method, based on Hidden Markov Models, for extracting the relative importanc ...
In this chapter, we explore the issue of encoding, recognizing, generalizing and reproducing arbitrary gestures. We address one major and generic issue, namely how to discover the essence of a gesture, i.e. how to find a representation of the data that enc ...
Facial expression recognition is a hard and ambiguous problem in computer vision. It is hard due to the wide variety of faces and the wide variety of ways of representing the same expression. And it is ambiguous because, even though common approaches treat ...
This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to multimodal integration and decision-making in the context of human-robot interactions. More specifically, we address the principle of ideomotor compatibility by which observing the movements of others ...
